Former Member over 11 years ago

Hello,

 

I am working on a custom kite buggy that needs to have powered steering basically. I made a video explaining  what I am looking for, click the link below.

Thank you for your help!

    Hi Skye

    We work with EEG (Electroencephalogram) and maybe the way is to perform certain functions with your Brain

    eg left brain - turns it left and right brain turns right  ?

    Cheers

    Wow that is very interesting and something that I had not thought about. My concern with using something like that would be  that it is not just left straight or right but everything in between the spectrum also. I think the best place for me to start is with a pressure sensor that I can put between my teeth. No pressure would be straight( or slightly downwind) a lot of pressure would be a hard turn up wind,  Medium pressure would be a medium turn upwind and the sensor would be gradual. Another thing with using the EEG that would be bad is  that it seems like it would have a steep learning curve. I think the bite sensor would be more intuitive And more easily learned by a new user. Thanks for the reply! and I will keep that in mind for future projects.
